We are going to DisneyWorld in November. We have a 5 month old and a 3 year old. Can the 5 month go on the slow rides with mom? How does the ride switch thing work for the faster rides?”

There are many rides at WDW where your five month old can come with you. He or she can go on any ride for which there is no height requirement. In fact because of height requirements on most of the fastest rides, there will be very few rides that your three year old will be able to go on that your five month old can't (unless you have an exceptionally tall three year old). If you click HERE, you will taken to instructions on how to find the height requirements for the attractions.

One possible attraction where you might need the rider switch is Goofy's Barnstormer in the Magic Kingdom. If you click HERE, you'll be taken to the Moms Panel video page. Look for Panelist Michelle's super helpful video where she demonstrates the rider switch option. You can also read descriptions of the rider switch HERE and HERE.
